Ellen was one of four children and had four children of her own, Linda Clough, William Kellogg, Debbie McClain and Norman Kellogg, Jr.

She also had nine grandchildren, and too many great and great-great grandchildren to count. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews whom she cared about.

They also had spouses who she cared for very much.

Ellen lived so many places in her life as a wife of a Navy man, Norman Darrell Kellogg, Sr.

The last 18 years of her life she lived in Tehachapi. She had many occupations, but the one she loved the most was being a receptionist at Town & Country Real Estate and RE/MAX Tehachapi Inc. She had many friends and loved to talk to and meet new people. Ellen wasn't too big on social gatherings, but she loved to meet people through work and loved listening to the agents and sharing in their lives. She made many friends.

She had many interests throughout her life, but her favorite was reading. She loved her romance novels.

Country music was another of her loves, and her children remember her playing her 33s. They themselves love country music to this day.

She worshiped at Tehachapi Mountain Vineyard and treasured the friends she made there.

Ellen will be laid to rest at Bakersfield National Cemetery with her husband, Norman D. Kellogg, Sr.
